Seaport San Diego

AWARDS:

2017 PCBC Gold Nugget Merit Award

LOCATION:San Diego, California

SIZE:2,237,316 SF; 40 acres of land & 30 acres of water

CONSTRUCTION COST:$1.2 billion (estimated)

CLIENT:Protea Development

SERVICES PROVIDED:Architecture and Masterplanning

This redevelopment of Seaport Village will be built over the next decade and will include: a 480-foot observation tower, partially underground aquarium, 3 hotels, shops & restaurants, 30 acres of new parkland, beach and promenades; and upgraded facilities for commercial fishing fleets and pleasure craft.

This project is one that can connect psychologically the urban center of the town back to the perception of this city as a beach city. The new design will open up southern vistas down Pacific Highway and Kettner and beckon downtown residents, workers and hotel guests down its pedestrian pathways to the waterfront.

OPPORTUNITY: Connect Downtown San Diego to the Waterfront

GOALS/SOLUTIONS:

The heart of our Seaport project honors the Bay and the unique character it brings to San Diego. The essence of our city’s greatness is its proximity to the water. We will use the Bay to fashion a new downtown district that links together the existing downtown with a host of new experiences and activities for all San Diegans.

The Bay itself — certainly one of the city’s most important features — shapes this effort. With Seaport’s careful planning and innovative architecture, San Diego Bay will be more accessible than ever before to all.

Through thoughtful, imaginative planning driven by the San Diego Unified Port District’s Guiding Principals and Framework Plan, Seaport will blend and integrate exciting new commercial uses with a vibrant public realm so that citizens can stroll in the bayside sunshine and enjoy the Bay in entirely new ways.

The stage will be set for bold-faced architecture, an arrange of affordable hospitality and vibrant attractions that are sophisticated, approachable and family-friendly.

Seaport will look to the future with an aquarium and observation tower, while paying homage to the heritage of San Diego with a vibrant fishing harbor.
